Engaged To My Professor

Chapter 37

***GRACES POV***

I woke up the next morning to Andrea running her fingers across my arm and planting kisses on my neck and face. I turned around in her arms "Mmm good morning gorgeous" I said opening my eyes Andrea smiled and brought her face to mine "Good morning" sh whispered softly before kissing my lips. I smiled when she pulled away and looked at me with those honey brown eyes.

"Last night was" she said speechless "Amazing" I said finishing her sentence for her, she nodded before reaching out and brushing my cheek with her finger.

I've never seen this side of her and honestly I was loving every minute of it.

"I wish we could stay like this all day" she said "Why can't we?" I asked "Because your father called moments ago requesting you" she said I frowned and sighed loudly, before wrapping my arms around her waist and snuggling into her. "Ughhhh must I go?" I whined Andrea ran her fingers through my hair "If you don't then he'll come here and to tell you the truth I'm not really a fan of your father and grandfather" she said.

"Something we both have in common" I replied she smiled and I let out another sigh "I don't want to leave you alone maybe I should just ignore him" I said "I'll be fine I actually have somewhere to go myself" she said.

"I guess that's that the, well in the mean time" I said before getting up off of the bed. Andrea looked at me confused as I walked over to the bathroom still naked from last night.

"I'm taking a shower, care to join me?" I asked reaching out a hand to her she smiled and immediately got out of bed.

I put on my jacket at the door, I was about to leave until I stopped myself. "Wait I'm forgetting something" I said Andrea looked at me confused "What?" She asked and I walked over to her before leaning in and kissing her lips.

After a moment we pulled away and she looked at me surprised, "That" I said with a smile. before moving away "I'll see you later" I said she nodded her head and I reached for the door opening it before leaving out of it.

I made it to the manor and walked inside. When I got in there my father and mother were sitting on the couch. It went quiet when I walked in, I stood there as one of the maids took my coat before walking into the living room and taking a seat on the couch across from my mother and father.

This scene was pretty familiar.

"I was summoned?" I said crossing one leg over the other then resting my clasped hands on top of them.

"It's about your marriage" he said I leaned forward. "What about my marriage?" I asked getting defensive.

"We want you to get a divorce" he said.

WHAT?!?

"What are you talking about?" I asked "Just do as I say Grace, this is what you want anyways" he said "With a due respect father you don't know what I want, you haven't in a very long time" I said. "Grace if I'm telling you something it's for a reason divorce the Anderson girl" he said starting to get pissed off because I'm not doing as he say right away.

"No, you owe me and explanation, my life isn't just some game that you can pick up and play whenever you chose" I said, he slammed his fist on the table startling both me and my mother.

"You-" he said but was cut off by my mother putting a hand over his "Dear please just tell her" she said, my father sighed before removing his hand from hers and fixing his tie.

"The Anderson family has decided not to cooperate with us anymore" he said.

I twisted my face "That's it? You want me to divorce my wife because you're having a little misunderstanding with the other side?!" I said in disbelief. My father pinched the bridge of his nose "It's not just a misunderstanding the ceo has changed Mr. Anderson is no longer the ceo his son Brian is and right now as we speak he is dipping into our stocks" he explained.

"And how is he allowed to do that?" I asked looking at my father, "Because it was promised to them in the marriage contract, 30% of all stocks and 10% of shares but they violated that contract first there for they do not get the benefits, we need to push them out now" said my father.

But all I heard was that this was his fault and he wants me to fix it.

I'm done doing what him and his father want.

"No" I said "What"said my father "I said no I'm not divorcing Andrea" I said "You..." he said before grabbing a glass from the table and throwing it at the wall behind the couch I was sitting on.

"You Will Do What I Say Or You Will-" he said but I cut him off "I will what? Be pushed out of the family inheritance?, removed as CEO?, kicked out of the manor?" I said standing up so that we were both now on the same eye level.

"News flash but you can't do any of that, I own the very company that is Your sole source of income so I'm not hurting for money especially when you add what I got from the marriage contract to it, you can't throw me out on the streets because I don't live here anymore and you can't have me removed as CEO because you no longer have that power" I said.

He looked confused, "What are you talking about?" He asked I grinned, "You wanna know what my first order of business was when you and your father forced me into the CEO chair?" I asked but got no answer.

It was alright though because I was going to tell him anyways.

"It was removing you and grandfather as majority shareholders" I said, my father's face went pale.

"You have nothing now, nothing but the money you made before I became CEO so I'd advise you not to spend it all in one place" I said.

"You Ungrateful little girl" he said walking towards me and before I knew it he had grabbed me by my neck and slammed me against the wall.

"Michael!!" Yelled my mother shooting up from her seat. "I'm The Reason You Have All That You Have And This Is How You Repay Me?!!?" He shouted in my face. I felt the air slowly leaving my lungs as his grip on my neck got tighter. "Michael Stop She's Your Daughter" said my mother trying to get him off of me. I just stared him in the eyes "No she's not" he said before letting go of me I put a hand up to my neck rubbing it as I gasped for air.

"She's dead to me" he said in my face, "Get the hell out of my house" he added, "Gladly" I replied with a glare before walking away.

I left out of the front door being sure to slam it behind me.

I'm done with this family and I'm tired of letting them take from me.
